PAG LIN
  1  1    Section 1.  Section 422.42, subsection 11, Code 1995, is
  1  2 amended to read as follows:
  1  3    11.  "Retail sale" or "sale at retail" means the sale to a
  1  4 consumer or to any person for any purpose, other than for
  1  5 processing, for resale of tangible personal property or
  1  6 taxable services, or for resale of tangible personal property
  1  7 in connection with taxable services; and includes the sale of
  1  8 gas, electricity, water, and communication service to retail
  1  9 consumers or users; but does not include agricultural breeding
  1 10 livestock and domesticated fowl, including emus, ostriches,
  1 11 and rheas; and does not include commercial fertilizer,
  1 12 agricultural limestone, herbicide, pesticide, insecticide,
  1 13 food, medication, or agricultural drain tile, including
  1 14 installation of agricultural drain tile, any of which are to
  1 15 be used in disease control, weed control, insect control, or
  1 16 health promotion of plants or livestock produced as part of
  1 17 agricultural production for market; and does not include
  1 18 electricity, steam, or any taxable service when purchased and
  1 19 used in the processing of tangible personal property intended
  1 20 to be sold ultimately at retail.  When used by a manufacturer
  1 21 of food products, carbon dioxide in a liquid, solid, or
  1 22 gaseous form, electricity, steam, and other taxable services
  1 23 are sold for processing when used to produce marketable food
  1 24 products for human consumption, including but not limited to,
  1 25 treatment of material to change its form, context, or
  1 26 condition, in order to produce the food product, maintenance
  1 27 of quality or integrity of the food product, changing or
  1 28 maintenance of temperature levels necessary to avoid spoilage
  1 29 or to hold the food product in marketable condition,
  1 30 maintenance of environmental conditions necessary for the safe
  1 31 or efficient use of machinery and material used to produce the
  1 32 food product, sanitation and quality control activities,
  1 33 formation of packaging, placement into shipping containers,
  1 34 and movement of the material or food product until shipment
  1 35 from the building of manufacture.  Tangible personal property
  2  1 is sold for processing within the meaning of this subsection
  2  2 only when it is intended that the property will, by means of
  2  3 fabrication, compounding, manufacturing, or germination become
  2  4 an integral part of other tangible personal property intended
  2  5 to be sold ultimately at retail; or will be consumed as fuel
  2  6 in creating heat, power, or steam for processing including
  2  7 grain drying, or for providing heat or cooling for livestock
  2  8 buildings, or for generating electric current, or in
  2  9 implements of husbandry engaged in agricultural production; or
  2 10 the property is a chemical, solvent, sorbent, or reagent,
  2 11 which is directly used and is consumed, dissipated, or
  2 12 depleted, in processing personal property which is intended to
  2 13 be sold ultimately at retail or consumed in the maintenance or
  2 14 repair of fabric or clothing, and which may not become a
  2 15 component or integral part of the finished product.  The
  2 16 distribution to the public of free newspapers or shoppers
  2 17 guides is a retail sale for purposes of the processing
  2 18 exemption.  
  2 19                           EXPLANATION
  2 20    This bill provides that the sale of emus, ostriches, and
  2 21 rheas is the sale of "domesticated fowl" and therefore not a
  2 22 retail sale subject to imposition of the state sales tax.
